Echoes of Righteousness: A Rant... · 7:41pm Jul 14th, 2012
Okay... So I originally intended to have chapter 2 out by today and was eagerly working on the story and the plot, trying to get it done for you. And I was like "Alright, I gotta write this and write that to make sense of this from Ch. 1 and get that all set". And two days later, I have an official decree: No matter how much I try to change it, no matter how much I want to be satisfied with it; the finished Ch. 2 is a flop... on all levels.
I was so frustrated and distraught that I asked a few authors here and there if any of it made any sense (keep in mind I had them read Ch. 1 first), and we agree... I could have done a much, much better job with the story, not to mention make it a little longer (2k words. Kind of lazy if you're me.). Instead I got a cascade of nonsense that would have made Discord and Pinkie go "Daaayuum! That makes no sense!". Because, God damn it, I aim to please people the best way I can with my work. My blessing, my curse as I like to call it.
In fact, allow me to picture my frustration:
So yeah... My author rage and writer's block is high, and yeah bro... I AM mad. Anyway, I'll try to get the new chapter up in the next few days and hopefully, just hopefully, be satisfied.
And that concludes my rant.
Yours truly,
Alex W. Grove
I laughed.
As for your writers block. I laughed too.
Sucks I'm in the same situation. Fuck.
